IE 419 Work Design:Productivity and Safety Dr. Andris Freivalds Class #13 IE 419
Other Special Cases • Principle of limiting motion • For two different motions for each hand • Use the longer time • Principle of combined motion • For two combined motion in one hand • Use longer time • R is included in C-type motions IE 419
Examples IE 419
Sources of Error • Discreteness – tabular data • No interpolation • Hopefully, this averages out • Synthesis assumes correct process • Need correct application - practice IE 419
Summary of MTM-2 Data IE 419
Ex #2: Flashlight assembly IE 419
Maynard Operation Sequence Technique (MOST, pp. 508-513) • Developed by Zandin in 1967 • At SAAB-Scania in Sweden • Published in 1980 through H.B. Maynard • Basically simplified MTM (same TMU) • Faster than MTM-1 and MTM-2 • Has many diverse tool applications • Has computer program!! IE 419
MOST – Comparison with MTM IE 419
Versions of MOST • Maxi MOST • For rare operations (<150/week) • For long cycles (minutes to hours) • Very quick, but less accurate • Basic MOST • Between 150 and 1,500 operations/week • Typical cycle times: 0.5 – 3 minutes • Mini MOST • More than 1,500 operations/week • Cycle times < 0.5 min • Most detailed and time consuming IE 419
Basics of Basic MOST - 1 Only three activity sequences: • General Move • Movement of object freely through space • ½ of all work sequences • Controlled Move • Movement of object attached to another or in contact with a surface • ⅓ of all work sequences • Tool/Equipment Use • 1/6of all work sequences IE 419
General Move - Basics • Has 4 subactivities: • A = Action distance (horizontal) • B = Body motion (vertical) • G = Gain control (i.e. GET cases A, B, C) • P = Placement (i.e. PUT cases A, B, C) • Grouped into 3 phases: • Get – reach and gain control of object • Put – move object to new location • Return – distance walked back to workstation, not for hands IE 419
General Move – Typical Steps • Reach some distance with hands for object, perhaps with body motion or steps • Gain manual control of object • Move object some distance, perhaps with body motion or steps • Place the object at specified location • Return to workplace (if needed) IE 419
General Move • A = Action distance • B = Body motion • G = Gain control • P = Placement • Obtain Index Values based on characteristics • Sum Index Values, multiply by 10 → TMUs IE 419
MOST - General Move IE 419
Ex #1 - General Move Walk 3 steps to pick up a bolt from the floor, arise, place bolt in a bolt hole. • A6 = Walk 3 steps to object • B6 = Bend and arise • G1 = Gain control of light object • A1 = Move object a distance within reach • B0 = No body motion • P3 = Place and adjust object • A0 = No return ∑IV = 6+6+1+1+3 = 17 17x10 = 170 TMUs IE 419
General Move - Parameter IndexingAction Distance (A) • A0≤ 2 in • A1 within reach • A3 1 - 2 steps • A6 3 - 4 steps • A10 5 - 7 steps • A16 8 -10 steps • Extended values IE 419
General Move - Parameter IndexingBody Motion (B) • B0 no body motion • B3 sit/stand no adj. • B3 bend/arise – 50% • B6 bend and arise • B10 sit/stand with adj. • B16 variety • Bend and sit • Stand and bend • Climb on or off IE 419
General Move - Parameter IndexingBody Motion (B) con’t • B16 passing through door (steps before and after are included in value) • A16 B16 G1 A1 B6 P1 A0 = 410 TMU IE 419
General Move - Parameter IndexingGain Control (G) • G0 no gain control, hold • G1 light object (simo) • G3 variety • Light objects (non simo) • Heavy or bulky • Blind or obstructed • Disengage (force) • Interlocked • Collect several IE 419
General Move - Parameter IndexingPlacement (P) • P0 no placement, toss • P1 lay aside, loose fit • P3 loose fit blind • Place with adjustment • Double placement • Place with light pressure • P6 heavy pressure • With care or precision • Blind or obstructed • Intermediate moves IE 419
General Move - Parameter Indexing • Return – last A for time for operator to walk back to normal workstation • Return – not meant for returning hands • Placement with insertion – two lines • Repeat cycles - handful of washers on 6 bolts A1 B0 G3 (A1 B0 P1) A0 (6) (1+3) + 6(1+1) + 0 x 10 = 160 TMU IE 419
